I’m glad you let this poem out for air before it diminished. A worthy sentiment to express. Personally I’m fairly shy of even most semi-political stuff, although this is more about simple humanity and direct. As well, this in particular sounds a note to me, because where I work has a street sidewalk crowded with folks like this – and mostly what I hear are comments about how unsafe some people feel!

I think the fears are more inside than outside, that way. Like some fewer others, thoughts are more supportive for people willing of necessity to do what they must. Nicely stated as you’ve done here.
